I'm having a hard time liking the rear facia, the tail lights mainly. But, the technology in the C7 is a nice welcome. 7 speed with throttle blip, digital dash with several modes of viewing to go along with the driving mode entered. Much needed interior updates (The seats in mine have been a big complaint for vette owners ever since the C6 came out. My C4 vette actually had better seats.) and a standard hud, Al chassis and some carbon fiber. Maybe the Z06 version will sway my next purchase.

My hang up is the tail lights themselves, everything else i love on the car.
Tail lights are a touch too Camaro and that's my Chevy pet peeve, they always find a way to use something from 1 vehicle on another. At least these aren't exactly the same. But they are not the 4 ovals they should be.

I would like to do what this guy did to his rig to my Nissan hardbody PU. The pathy in the vid is the same era and motor. Thankfully I have a 5 speed manual.

A car I plan on owning after getting a good job out of college:

And if money is not an issue: The original Vantage V8

The Aston is a beautiful car, but remember that it is not just the purchase price. A non high volume car has extremely high cost parts. So, just keep that in mind. example: My co-worker owns a 360 Ferrari (Not an expensive Ferrari anymore since it is getting old.) He had to replace an inside door handle assembly a few weeks back, which on a normal car would be around the $50 to $80. His car was over $550.00. So, be prepared to pay a little to keep her up to snuff.
If you do purchase one, you must post some pics. Because I would love to see some close ups.

I do really want one of the new Vipers. I really like the 2008 BMW M5 with the v-10 also. I could definitely see that being a daily driver, unless the Viper is really civilized.

All three of these babies in my treasure chest would truly be my dream that could possibly come true
50' Cigarette Marauder with 3x1075hp Mercs, a Cary 50' with Quad blown 454's and the MV Wellcraft Scarab

How do you work on the engines in that 50', looks like there is no room. Looks pretty sweet though!!!!

They are Mercs. You don't work on them lol. To be honest, other than an oil change, you pull them to do any work. It's so easy in a boat that its just not worth climbing around. Engines can come out in under a half hour.

When I drop it, it gets into negative camber. My overall average over the 20,000 miles on it so far is 18.5. That includes several trips with a trailer that bring the tank avg down to 14s. My best tank avg has been 21.5 and it normally does 19s. This pic is at ride height and I know people that get the same averages at stock height so I don't think it matters. A brick is still a brick lol

That is pretty cool but technicly you can do that to any car. I could do that to my camry if I really wanted. I do agree though. I love jeeps and the jeep grand cheokee srt8 is dang fast for such a big car. I would almost take it over a lambo just because it can still go off road and beat most cars in a race.
